I Am Made Of Rage

I got my unemployment information in the mail the other day. However, my time at Atomica is not listed on the claim. Instead, they have my pay rate based on my time as a waiter only. Which comes out to next to nothing per week from unemployment - I can't live on only that. So now I have to spend my day contacting someone

my sympathies man...unemployment is a real bitch...when you find yourself with some extra scratch again, try a free-standing heavy bag for that whole tissue soup impulse...

btw, "tissue soup" may be one of the greatest phrases i have ever read...

Dude, whomever coined the term 'funemployment' never considered the unemployment departments of most states. Sounds like you need to file with PA, and I know that can be a chore. The good news... once everything is straight there's pretty good about sending you a State of PA debit card with your first few payments on them until your direct deposit is working.

Go light a hobo on fire. Always a good way to de-stress and it won't ruin your chances to actually get your unemployment check unless you're caught.

I agree. Eat the homeless. It would solve two problems at once.

If you need a float for groceries and stuff, don't ever hesitate to mention it. We'd rather have you eating and paying bills than watch you waste away physically and financially.

Reading about the bureaucratic red tape bullshit you are going through makes me so angry! I can't imagine how frustrating it is to deal with government numskulls who can't get things right in a timely manner. It's just totally unfair.

As shitty as this whole thing is, I really do mean it when I say that you are a strong guy and things will get better. I just hope it happens sooner rather than later. Think of all this as fodder for your memoirs when you write your autobiography. Although you may need to leave out the hobo fire-setting... *hugs*
